Chapter 70

On the day of Zhou Suxi's trial, there were quite a few media present. The elements of male prostitutes, well-known lawyers, and retribution inevitably made the public opinion boil.Not long after Jiang Yu returned to China, he was not well-known, but Xu Zhimiao, the plaintiff's lawyer, was well-known in the industry.He is less than thirty years old but has vicious eyes and specializes in criminal proceedings.

Jiang Yu was sorting out the case, when he suddenly saw a palm stretched out in front of him.Xu Zhimiao's smile didn't reach his eyes, and he lowered his voice and said, "The enterprise case is not enough for you, now you have to come to the criminal to get a piece of the pie, or is there something strange about this case? I don't think Zhou Suxi can hand over a hundred dollars." Ten thousand legal fee guy."

Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows and joked, "I also occasionally generate electricity for love."

Xu Zhimiao sneered, took a deep look at him, and said, "I'm afraid you've lost the title of '100% winning rate'."

Jiang Yu said: "I don't need you to worry about that."

When Xu Yanxin walked into the court, the court session had already started.Since he came back to live at home, he seldom went out. He spent several days burying his head in front of the desk to read the case files. Today it was rare for him to go out, so naturally he would be stopped by Xu Zhao for interrogation.Panting, he found a place to sit under the gaze.Jiang Yu sat in the defendant's lawyer's seat, and didn't even look up at him, but Xu Zhimiao, the plaintiff's lawyer who was interrogating the witness, gave him a strange look.

The uncle stood on the witness stand, obviously a little cramped, while Xu Zhimiao, who was interrogating him, was dressed in a neat suit and stood upright.

"What is your name, please?"

"Zhao, Zhao Ping."

Xu Zhimiao smiled and said, "Ordinary Ping?"

"Yes."

Xu Yanxin frowned, not quite understanding the meaning of Xu Zhimiao's entanglement.However, Xu Zhimiao said: "But your ID card says Tupingping."

The uncle quickly said: "Oh, me, how old am I, and I can't read."

After Xu Zhimiao got a satisfactory answer, he showed the uncle a few pictures and asked him to describe the scene.However, the uncle squinted his eyes, looked and looked, and said: "Well, this person is so small, how do I know what they are doing?"

Xu Zhimiao smiled and said, "You are illiterate and have vision problems. Why do you believe that you remember an accidental incident many years ago? You said in your testimony that the plaintiff, Xia Qingzheng, scalded the defendant's fingers and prevented the defendant from calling the police. This is really true with your own eyes. Did you see that?"

"Of course! I never lie, you can just ask people in our town."

"Did you see with your own eyes that Xia Qingzheng burned Zhou Suxi's fingers and caused him to lose his fingerprints?"

"That kid yelled that at me himself!"

Xu Zhimiao seemed to be very patient, and said, "But have you witnessed the crime process with your own eyes?"

The uncle shook his body and hurriedly said: "I don't have one, but how could a child lie to me with such a thing!"

"Kids are good at playing tricks."

"But he didn't!"

"Why are you so sure about this?" Xu Zhimiao adjusted his posture and said, "Because that child is crying? He shouted at you at the top of his lungs? Did you know that children are also good at acting? The youngest actor at the Cannes Film Festival is only 14 years old. Sometimes, what you see may not be true."

"I can tell the difference between acting and reality! You, you black-hearted lawyer—"

The judge immediately frowned and said, "Please pay attention to the wording."

Soon, the uncle was subdued on the seat and shouted "I'm not lying" to Xu Zhimiao, but Xu Zhimiao was unmoved and just looked at him calmly, he could only ask for the approval of the bystanders, but Those who came to observe knew the rules of the court well, and all of them just looked at him blankly. He almost found Xu Yanxin's position in the crowd as if calling for help, and shouted at him, "They don't believe me."However, Xu Yanxin could only tighten his lips and look at Jiang Yu.Jiang Yu was still spinning the pen calmly.For some reason, Xu Yanxin thought of the boy in the last row of the classroom, always so calm and breezy.

When it was Jiang Yu's turn, he even buttoned up the front buttons of his suit indifferently, even Xu Yanxin couldn't help but slander him, it's time like this, and he still needs a concave shape.Jiang Yu first asked a few routine questions, and after the uncle regained his senses, Jiang Yu said: "In the testimony, you said 'that child said he was called Zhou Suxi, and claimed that the dean burned his fingerprints'? This is Zhou Suxi told you personally 15 years ago, right?"

"Correct."

"Did you see him go into the police station?"

"I, I saw it, but I was pushed out by the police within a minute or two."

"As a security guard at the police station, within 24 hours, have you seen the police come out?"

"No, they said, it was a child's prank, but the child had wounds all over his hands."

Jiang Yu pondered: "So even if they saw children with wounds on their hands, they still refused to investigate on the grounds of 'prank'. Do they usually handle other cases with the same passive attitude?"

"No, no, I remember that the next day, they dispatched half of the police station to arrest a street robber. We live in a remote village in hills and mountains, and there are no major cases, but there are many small cases, and the police will take care of them."

"So the police station just kept silent about the orphanage incident," Jiang Yu asked again: "Do you know that the plaintiff's 'Happy Orphanage' is operating illegally without any official documents."

"I, I don't know."

"Where are the other residents of Qiushan?"

"I, I don't think they know."

Jiang Yu calmly said: "Why are you so sure that other residents will know nothing about it like you?"

The old man took it for granted: "The police have never checked that orphanage, how could they know?"

"Then the police did not care about the injury incidents of young children before the contact. Does it mean that the police station is not deceived, but deliberately ignores all incidents related to the 'Happy Orphanage'?"

Xu Zhimiao said: "No, the defendant's lawyer's question is inductive."

Jiang Yu smiled, seemingly unaffected by anything, and turned to the judge, "In the 25 years since the establishment of the 'Happy Orphanage', there have been no official procedures, no investigations, and no investigations. Qingzheng Qiushan's status is extraordinary, causing the police to ignore Zhou Suxi's case on purpose."

The judge was silent for half a second, and said to Xu Zhimiao: "The objection is invalid, please continue to ask the defendant's lawyer."

Jiang Yu continued to say to the uncle: "Do you remember what the plaintiff and the defendant were wearing that day?"

"Well, the kid was wearing a very worn white t-shirt, because it was full of stains, so I was impressed, shoes and pants I don't remember much, but I do remember what the plaintiff was wearing, he was very different that day than usual , wearing a royal blue overcoat."

"Why do you say it's very different?"

"His clothes are usually ragged, and they don't have any patterns, so we think he is a good dean, and we have never doubted it, but that day he wore a dress made of particularly good material, and that blue color is rare, so that The kids were dressed so poorly, so I was impressed."

Jiang Yu said: "My inquiry is over."

The reporter sitting beside Xu Yanxin sighed to himself, "It's amazing."

indeed.

Xu Zhimiao tried to prove that the uncle's testimony was unreliable, but Jiang Yu did not focus on proving that "Xia Qingzheng had hurt Zhou Suxi", but focused on the dereliction of duty of the police and the local government, so as to prove that "Xia Qingzheng did not hurt Zhou Suxi". He has a coercive relationship with Xia Qingzheng" to disprove that "the young Zhou Suxi has no courage to lie" and let the idea that "Zhou Suxi may have a stress response to some of Xia Qingzheng's actions" enter everyone's minds.

Xu Yanxin walked out of the court and took a deep breath.

"Xu Yanxin?"

He turned his head and saw Zhang An.Zhang An still had the harmless face of humans and animals, but perhaps wearing a leather jacket gave him a somewhat flamboyant aura.Xu Yanxin has never been in the habit of confronting others, and after saying hello, she wanted to run away.Unexpectedly, Zhang An grabbed him and said: "I just realized it now, so the Bai Yueguang he misses so much is you. You already knew it? You have been missed by others for ten years, grew up together, and even became a lawyer." The reason for this is also because of you, there is no way you don't know. Are you happy playing with me?"

Xu Yanxin didn't know how to answer, but kept silent.

Zhang An was very angry and laughed back: "You are the one who wins, why did you run away?"

"There is no winning or losing in a relationship."

"He became a lawyer because of you, left China because of you, and returned to China because of you," Zhang An said with red eyes, "Xu Yanxin, only the winner can retain dignity like you and say such high-sounding words. If one day he beats you You can’t even remember his birthday, you’ll know what it’s like, and I’m gone, I don’t want to watch his lawsuit anymore. Every time I can’t help but forgive him again.”

Zhang An made a gesture to leave, but Xu Yanxin called him back and said, "You..."

He wanted to ask so many questions that he didn't know where to start.But Zhang An said clearly: "He and I have nothing from the beginning. He and I were acting on the spot at the beginning, rejecting each other's suitors. After returning to China, you are the 'field'. He wants to use me to anger you. However, you have never been fooled, maybe you have always known subconsciously that I cannot pose a threat to you. It is so ironic that he helped me get a job and solve a case for me, but he refused to let me in even the door. "

"Why me? I thought about it countless times, and finally found the answer," Zhang An looked at Xu Yanxin, "The first time I met him was in the studio. He said he came to choose a birthday present, and asked me to help him choose a few." A special paint, and said he wanted to send it to his friend. I was very sloppy at the time, and my cuffs were full of paint. He looked at it for a long time and said to me, you really look like my friend.”

"Xu Yanxin, you won so thoroughly. Even once, can you be more arrogant? If you are always so good, what will we do for vulgar people?"

Looking at Zhang An's tears, he was caught off guard and said, "I'm sorry."

"If I were you, you would laugh at me severely. After saying all the bad things, why are you so decent until the last moment? I used to think that you were not worthy of Jiangyu, you were stupid and hypocritical. But now I just realized that you are not good enough for him, and he is not good enough for you, you are people from two worlds. If you fall in love with another man, Jiang Yu will want to kill him, he is that kind of guy."

"Fortunately, you are not compatible, so I can be relieved," Zhang An said before leaving, "Xu Yanxin, if your 'sorry' just now was serious, then I hope you will never really fall in love with him. To his kind Selfish and cruel people, this is the best punishment."

However, after a few seconds of silence, Xu Yanxin said, "This... I don't seem to be able to do it."

"You obviously decided to leave him, didn't you?"

"Sometimes I don't know myself very well," Xu Yanxin frowned. "I'm sad to stay away from him, but I'm also sad to pretend to be by his side. Maybe I just hate him for lying to me. He always has a look of self-pity, waiting for me to leave him. But he was not such a person before, he was always very confident before, as if he didn't care about anything..."

Zhang An looked back at him and asked, "Why did you tell me this?"

Xu Yanxin was silent for a long time and said, "I think maybe you will feel better after hearing this."

Zhang Jing looked at him quietly for a few seconds, put his hands in his pockets, and suddenly yelled: "I won't, don't put on a stupid look to influence the enemy, it's disgusting to watch! Tell Jiangyu I'm leaving Now, in order to get revenge on him, I will tell you a little secret about him——Jiang Yu is still a virgin, and my birthday wish is to wish him a morning-ejaculation!"

Many people passing by stopped and looked at the two of them curiously, but Zhang An snorted contentedly and walked away gracefully.
